An incredible hunting package! Hunt day, night, dawn & dusk. No matter when you hunt, you'll have the right equipment. The Gamo Varmint Hunter HP comes with a synthetic stock that lets you concentrate on the job at hand instead of worrying about wear and dings on a wood stock.

Things I liked:Powerful, not to heavy or to light, design of the stock, likes most pellets I've tried, trigger was good enough right out of the box that I've never made any attempt to ajust it. Balances well.Things I would have changed:Drop the laser and light. Either put a better scope on it, or sell without a scope, and let the buyer decide what they won't. A way to install a sling like the benjamin trail would be nice. What others should know:I've had this air rifle about a year and a half now. When I first got it I had the scope that came with it on for about 30 min. and decided it wasn't going to work for me. So I installed a Center Point 4-16x40. A little big, but a lot better. It's very accurate. At 25yards I can shoot dime size groups. At 50 I get quarter size with an occasional flier. That's with 14.3 gr CHP's. My gun by the way is a .22 cal that for some reason you can't get anymore. Was worried about the plastic trigger for a while, but it has proven itself worthy. Don't expect this gun to be quiet. If you live in a rural area your fine. Anywhere else you might won't to find something quieter. The .22 can make a good bit of noise, I can only imagine the crack a .177 would make. This thing can try your patience at first until you learn how it likes to be shot. Mine had me about ready to beat it against a tree. Then I learned it's secrets, and it became my go to gun when I find an unwanted critter in the yard.

Things I liked:Light weight, not PCP (you will not run out out air), break barrel not too heavy, even my daughter can do it. Very good quality made. Like the green color. Very very durable and weather resistant. Shoot it at any condition (rain or shine). Once you've sighted it (it came with scopes, mounts and combination flashlight and laser), after you've pick the best pellet for it, you almost can't go wrong. Take it and your first shot is as good as your last shot (my experience was 1 year later), from the last time you've shot this gun. Things I would have changed:I wouldn't change anything gun design wise, but a little sanding off the sharp edges from the plastic molded stock can help. What others should know:I find the Gamo Master Point .22 1.05 g 16.20 gr to be very compatible to my gun. H&N field target .95 g 14.66 gr to be best for my gun. Comparing the price of both, why spend more for the H&N??? I find break barrel very practical. I have several PCP. The inconvenience with the PCP is you have to carry spare tanks of compressed air to have a full day of enjoyment. I get the same blast with my break barrel, especially this Gamo. Buy one for yourself, you will not regret it. I take it with me whenever I go camping. Just like what I said from the very beginning of mu review, YOU WILL NOT RUN OUT OF AIR.

Things I liked:Love the green color of the stock. Overall the gun is great, really has knockdown power. Cocking effort is effortless and pellet speed is good. The new SAT trigger is awesome. The Predator Polymags are the best and most accurate so far. 1/4 groups off of a bench at 25 yards. At 25 yards as soon as you hear the spring release the pellets already hitting target.Things I would have changed:Scope that comes with it sucks. Get a different scope.What others should know:Not all .22 pellets fit this gun. Beaman crow magnums don't fit. Also Senco Newboy .22 hollow points don't fit. H&N hollow points a no go as well. Not sure why? The Predator Polymags are the best pellet so far. Afraid to purchase different pellets because they may not fit??
